Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (Game Review)

Hello Gamers out there! So we’re gonna review the latest Assassin’s Creed Series and talk about the latest news,trailers and gameplay of the game.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey release date

After the Assassin’s Creed series took a year out between Syndicate and Origins, there’s been a question around whether the game will return to its annual release cycle or move to a more spaced out release cycle.

As it turns out, Ubisoft is back on track for an annual release.

One year after Assassin’s Creed Origins, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will be released on October 5, 2018 – and pre-orders for the game are live right now

When it hits you’ll be able to venture around Greece in the time of 431 BCE (a.k.a. the Peloponnesian War) as you play as either a male or female sell sword.

According to the game’s director, Scott Phillips, Odyssey will be one of the first games to incorporate broad-reaching choices that affect the world around you. Often, that will take the form of branching dialogue options that might give you option of saving someone or putting them out of their misery, helping someone out of a rut or leaving them to rot. These actions will change the world for both better and worse, and you’ll have to live with the outcomes.

New heroes

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will feature entirely new heroes. Not only that, they’ll be male and female, and players will be able to choose which protagonist they play.

Being able to choose between a male and a female protagonist would certainly suit a Spartan setting since it seems that women had a lot more freedom in ancient Sparta compared to other Greek states of the time.

It’ll bring even more gameplay changes than Origins

It’s also been reported by Kotaku that Odyssey will take the RPG changes made in Origins even further, aiming for more Witcher-like gameplay. As we’ve said above, it’s being said that players will have a choice of two protagonists but it’s also suggested that dialogue options will come to the series for the very first time

As far as plot details are concerned, we don’t want to give too much away, but you’ll be playing as an outcast Spartan turned mercenary, either Alexios or Kassandra. The game will start on the island of Kephallonia as you begin to uncover where you came from and turn the tide of the war for Sparta.
